Freedom Tower Metromover station closes for renovations


Metromover trains will bypass Freedom Tower Metromover station during the closure. Passengers can disembark at either Park West, College North, or College/Bayside stations. Those heading to events at the American Airlines Arena can use Park West Metromover station, which is an approximate 3-minute walk from the venue.

Station enhancements include:

  • New elevator shaft and elevator system
  • New escalator
  • New stairs and a canopy to protect users from the elements
  • New landscaping
  • New finishes to platform floor

The renovation is a joint project being completed by the Department of Transportation and Public Works (DTPW) and the developers of the Miami Worldcenter building complex. Construction is expected to be completed by fall 2021.

Once completed, Miami Worldcenter will consist of a reimagined downtown space with mixed-use buildings, available for residential, retail, and commercial properties. This new urban development, which includes the Paramount and Luma buildings in downtown, is an example of a transit-oriented development (TOD) that will connect the community to seamless travel via public transportation.
